Sikong Wan hosted a poetry gathering.
Her original intention was to invite a few friends before her departure from her family home, but unexpectedly, the Fifth Princess got wind of it. Intentionally, while Sikong Wan was out, she proposed to attend the poetry gathering that Sikong Wan was organizing.
Upon learning this, Madam Sikong immediately instructed Sikong Wan to send out a broader invitation, asking more ladies and wives to come to the poetry gathering.
On this day, the Fifth Princess was dressed exceptionally grand.
Although she no longer pined for Lou Zixi, she was a person who bore grudges. Since Lou Zixi would rather marry Sikong Wan than her, and their wedding dates were on the same day, the Fifth Princess wanted nothing more than to thoroughly outshine Sikong Wan.
After all, Ruan Hongwen was just a Tanhua, while Lou Zixi was a Top Scholar. Moreover, Lou Zixi's appearance was considered the very best in the Capital City.
